We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must remove boilerplate like EEO etc. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. First part: "How We Show Up For Our Patients ..." is about company description. Could be "About the role"? Actually "How We Show Up For Our Patients" is more about company mission. Could be "About the role"? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can choose appropriate headings based on content. We have sections: - How We Show Up For Our Patients (company description) -> could be "About the role" or maybe "About Somatus". But we need to follow examples; we can use "About the role". It's okay. - How We'll Support You (benefits/perks) -> Benefits. - How You'll Make An Impact (responsibilities) -> Responsibilities. - How You'll Strengthen Our Team (Qualifications, Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities, Physical Requirements) -> Qualifications, Skills, maybe Requirements. We need to separate Qualifications (education/experience) and Skills (knowledge, abilities). Also maybe Requirements (like physical requirements, vaccination proof). But we can combine. We must not create sections with placeholder text. Must include only if real content. Let's extract content. About the role: The first paragraph: "How We Show Up For Our Patients As a leading provider of outcomes-driven care for individuals and communities living with chronic conditions, Somatus is helping patients across the country enjoy More Healthy Days at Home™. Care at Somatus goes beyond treatment. Through a whole‑person approach, we deliver outcomes‑driven integrated care and show up #SomatusStrong for our patients and teammates.

  • . So list items. Responsibilities: The "How You'll Make An Impact" section includes many bullet-like sentences. We'll extract each duty as

We need to format as list items; nested lists for sub-bullets? The instruction: Use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Could have nested lists but okay. Qualifications: "Qualifications: High school diploma or equivalent required. 1+ years of experience in case management or care management, preferably coordinating care across multiple settings. 2+ years healthcare related experience .

Bilingual in either Spanish, Cantonese, or Mandarin , with the ability to converse fluently in a clinical setting using clinical terms." We could include under Qualifications or separate section "Preferred Qualifications". But we only have headings list; we could put under Qualifications as part of list, maybe separate subheading? Not required. We'll include as part of Qualifications list. Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities: list items. Physical Requirements: list items. Also vaccination requirement: "For this position, we require proof of COVID-19 vaccination, annual Influenza vaccination, along with immunizations for Hepatitis, MMR, Varicella, Tdap, and TB for employment." This is a requirement; could be under Requirements or Qualifications. We'll put under Requirements maybe. We need to decide sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits. Possibly also Requirements (physical reqs + vaccinations). But we can combine physical reqs into Qualifications? Better separate: Requirements (physical reqs, vaccinations). Skills (knowledge, skills, abilities). Qualifications (education/experience). Benefits. We must not create sections with placeholder text. All have content. Now produce HTML fragment. Structure:
